Alot of us are using the heavy locker. Its nice because it also compresses the map file more and makes it a smaller size.

Heavy locked maps can be opened in Worldedit, but will have NO triggers, rendering the map unfunctional.

Eliz site in the FAQ lists a method of intentionally corrupting your map, so worledit will not open it, but WC3 can.

i don't think i need to protect my maps. cause as long as i m not really famous at making maps like the people who made peasants life then no one will bother editing my map.

thanx guys but if i protect it i wont be able to be re-edited right?

 

[SD_Ryoko]

No.

So protect a different copy of your map that you intend to hand out.

some people have been silly enough to do this, so let me re-iterate what Ryoko said:

DO NOT MAP PROTECT THE ONLY COPY OF YOUR MAP
